COWLEY COUNTY — A Cowley County College student accused of an alleged sexual crime involving a minor made a first court appearance Thursday.

Just after 9:30 p.m. Sunday, Arkansas City Police were dispatched to Storbeck Dormitory, 109 S. Third Street, for a report of a 15-year-old girl found in the dormitory who was not a Cowley College student.

Police arrested Jordan Andrew Tuttle, 19, of Bristow, Oklahoma,  on suspicion of felony counts of aggravated indecent liberties with a child and contributing to a child’s misconduct by sheltering or concealing a runaway.

Tuttle was transported to and booked into the Cowley County Jail.

Investigators determined that the 15-year-old female runaway from Oklahoma had been staying with Tuttle. The two allegedly had been having sex in the dormitory.

Tuttle was taken into custody and the alleged victim was returned to the custody of her mother.  Following his court appearance, Tuttle bonded out of jail, according to Sheriff Dave Falletti.
